The types of missiles, counter missiles and their costs are explained pretty well for someone who knows almos tnothing about them. Even Ukraine’s 4.5% counter-rate against ballistic missiles seems crazy, some of those can fly at 16,100kmph! (10,000mph!)
The biggest difference currently would be the ability to be piloted? These glide bombs have huge range and can turn, so that’s my bet: these can be piloted through some connection and have a target location fallback or something.

Looks like it can have a connection or function autonomously, and the other factor making it a ‘drone’ would be cost compared to competing glide bombs. It’s also ground launched, which is similar to drones, but it does require a launch system of some sort, which a lot of drones do not :)
Yeah but the time is ticking now for the lost Russian territory, so they can try and make retaking that more expensive :)
You wouldn’t understand
Most of desktop users don’t care at all about these gains. Slap in normal ram and an SSD and a 1000 series Ryzen is ready to be a run of the mill desktop, that browses and can show media no problem.
I care! But I’m a power user. Most aren’t.
Interesting! thanks for elaborating. A week or month ago, a local Ukrainski politician, I thought it was a lady person, proclaimed that using the Russian language the invaders use is like spitting in the face of your home country. She got a hell of a lot of pushback on that. That made it seem that a lot of locals still prefer Russian to Ukrainian language. Can you shed some light on those conflicting sentiments?
Was inspired to educate myself a bit extra on Cyrillic script, so, from the english wiki:
"As of 2011, around 252 million people in Eurasia use it as the official alphabet for their national languages. About half of them are in Russia. " … "The Slavic languages are conventionally (that is, also on the basis of extralinguistic features) divided into three subgroups: East, South, and West, which together constitute more than 20 languages. Of these, 10 have at least one million speakers and official status as the national languages of the countries in which they are predominantly spoken: Russian, Belarusian and Ukrainian (of the East group), Polish, Czech and Slovak (of the West group), Bulgarian and Macedonian (eastern members of the South group), and Serbo-Croatian and Slovene (western members of the South group) "
Marc Anthony is a singer/songwriter, pfffff.
Or they want to have others say: “I thought you were defending, why are you crossing the border” and so discredit the defending nation. As if cross border defense is somehow immoral in the face of total fascism and expansionism…
Oof, state actors already going against their own word and arresting/abducting protestors while they first confirmed they wouldn’t… Can’t make out if this is happening now or before PM resignation.
Virtual Riker never gets tired. Sour notes for days!
Hahaha, that sounds horrific. What about the 78 page microwave recipe booklet you get/got with some brands? Remember those? Who the fuck is gonna microwave a whole chicken casserole to completion, what psychopaths is this written for?

I hope everything checks out legally, and they can resume offering this comfort to folks with no other options left. RIP when the time comes, everyone :).
